S. CLARKE'AND - MR,. M`ARTIWR. RACT, No, 111. " Aboated by the strong impreision mach on him by these considerations, he adopted very etfec- T tive means . for 'preVenting evils of so much otagosi tude ; taking upon himself•thereby a severeand ex _ tensive responsibility,- and •cerrainly without'sufh • cient light to pave guided almost any_ other man in "the sate situation. • With the .public interest al ways in „v i iew, never thought of personal conk-. quences ; arid with an intelligende, spirit, and energy, almos_t peculiar to himself, he checked the mischie - vous practices Which Pave heen alluded to by repeated seizures, at the risk of damages and ex, pellets that might have involved bin in.ruin. judgment,.however, proved to be equal to his zeal. . " In the mean time,,the Americans, who had so considerably profited by-this intercourse,.encouraod by their friends_on shore, as Well as by the CulleC tors and CoMptrolleit of ' the different CuStOms . 'of the lOands resisted the threats ,and orders Of Capt. Nelson, presuming Ilgi only on their right to trade from the reasons which have beenmentioned, but also froth an opinion - that the officers of the King's ships had no legal power to seize ~ny vessels withswt having deputations from the Customs, which they were well . assured would not be granted in those seas. Capt. Nelson, couseLous of the reetitude of his conduct,, continued to enforce the orders he had already given, and added, " that he knew no other reason for sending the King's ships abroad in time of peace, but for supporting the trade and protect• ing the commerce of his country." In the zealous di-charge of his, duty at Barbadoes, Antigua, St. Kitt's, Nevis, &c. he was more particularly sup , ported at the Islands of Grenada and St.. Vincen t 's, by Capt. collingwOod, in , the NletliNator, and his brother :cant.Winefred collingwood, in the Rat tler in consequence of which great numbers of the American vessels were proceeded against in the Ad miralty .taurts, and were regularly condemned. " The innumerable difficulties,. however, under which he had long laboured, now continually in creased, The planters,were, to a man, decidedly hostile to his conduct. , The Governors and Presi dents of the Islands gave _him no support ;. and The Admiral, wavering between.both parties, and-hav ing no decided loptnion, merely addressed a memo randum to Capt . . Nelsbn, .advising him " to 'be guided by the wilhes of the Presidents of the Coon- cil," which not being an order, the intrepid: Com mander.o the Boreas still pursued his - course.: On the ,arrival of the 1.1 : 41 - eas at Nevis, 1785, he found four American vessels t►,ere, deeply laden, and with What-are , termed the blanct.Colours L 1 lug, .w►►tch are white with -a . red cross. ,Tirese vessels were immediately visited, and the masters ut , them di redted, as they knew they were. American yessels, and had American cargoes on ,board, to hoist their proper colours, and leave the Island in forty-eight hours : they denied being Americans, • and refused to obey the Orders of Capt. Nelson. -14(1 which an examination pt their crew s took place on board the : Boreas, in the Captain's cabin, and beforp,tlie • , . Judge of Ott Admiralty, who happened to be 'on b.iard ; when they all colifesed that ,they were Americans, and that their vt-ssrls and cargoes ,were wholly American property. I.'ney were accordingly proceeded asaiyst in the Court of Adinirally..at Ne vis ; and notwithstanding the opinions and plead ings of the greater part of the learned,Couusel of the different lilands, whO had a.;(4...nibled to defend Ole - A • : rnericans, in din pope. of proving that captain Nelson,. without a deputation from the Custonas;, was .not'authori t zed to seize the, traders, ,that great Officer , 'pleddyd his own cause tid ably, and relied their specious arguments sd completely, that the (6ur velsels• with their cargoes Wpre coudemnLd as priies ib the Dureiis. `l - The — American. Masters on going a,fiore with their I:espFptive ,tollqwers, were trierrogat-d by an Aitorley who had been pOrp , sely prepared by the Cabal, : as ..to the place,, and the manner in 'which the descriptions had, been taken ; .and in!‘v a, flew scene dt.clUplicity ensued. The Masters, 'l.4iA on bythe Attorney, Were induced to declare, ttnrt: wneti k thy gave their dep)siiions they had been put into bodily fear ; for a man with a drawn sword (the sentry as is usual at the cabin-door) had stood over them dnr ing the whole proceeding. Other sitnihir falsities . equally ricliculotis were added ; and in -consequence, an'aaton of damages to a considerabl e amount was immediately commenced against Captain Ni.lson, owing to which, he was . confined to his cabin for many weeks, Sundays excepted. The Marshal tre- - queotly cattle on board to arrest him, but , by . fair words, the first Lieutenant, Mr. Wallis, was alwais able to elude his vigilance." 10 some letters addre4sed - during this period,.to Captain Locker, these events are torther illustrated.

I donut li-kc to say-mm:li against my Cont.. , (winder in Chief, there has been too much of that the late war ; but from soine - rcticumstanCes Lb:le-have lately hapened, I shall produce my orders , ever I come horn. ' It was near the - hurrizana months when I arrived in this country, consequent ly nothing-,could bey done until they were over in November, when. the squadzon art t ved ba - does, uid. the ships_were to „be sent tp L the ditf,:ro,it Islands; with only order 4 cdexamin; the anchorages, and wiiether thole as wood and water. rids' did not appear to me the intent of placing men rat war on this station, in peaceable litnes,..theretore I asked Collingwood to go with me to the Admiral, tor Ins sentirnentS - and 'mine were. Out-0y similar. I then asked him if we were not to attend to the, 'corn , perce of our country, and to take- cars; th'at the British trade was kept in ttiOscchanneli tAll:ci i s , tne Navigation Laws pointed out.' He answered lie had no Orders, nor had the Admiralty sent him any A&s of Parliament. I told him it was very odd, as every Captain of a man of war was furnished with the StatUtes of the Admiralty, in which was the N i vigation Act, which Apt' was directed to' Captains,.:&c. to see it carried into execution. He said tie had never seen the book, but having -pro duced and read the laws to lila], he seemed convinced that men of war were sent' abroad for some other purpose than to be made a shew of. He -then gave orders to all the squadron to see the Navigation ACt Carried into execution. • :" When'l went to my station at St. Kitt's I turned away all the rebels, not choosing to seize them at that time, as i,t would have appealed like a trap laid for them. In December, to my astonishment, an order came from the Admiral, telling us he had re ceived good advice, and requiring us not to hinder the Americans ,from coming. in, and hiving free egress and . regress, , if the Governor ch o se t o a ll ow theiti ; and a copy was enclosed of the orders he had sent to -the' GOireitiors and Piesidents of the Islands. .Gentral Shirl4r•and.others began by send ing. letters not far different from orders, that they itiould admit them in such situations, and tellilig me,the Admiral had left it t o the m ; but th e y thoUght it right to let me know it. -Mr. --- I soon trimmed up and silenced. Sir, Richard Hughes was a more delicate businessi - I must either dis Obey my orders, or disobey Atts of Parliametii. I determined :upon the former, trusting to the up. rightness of my intentions, and belie.4ed that my country would not allow me to be ruined by pro teeting {ter commerce. I.7:first. sent to Sir Richard, expatiated on the. Navigation Laws to the best of my ability, .told hith I was certain some person hld beengi% ing him ad- N;ice 'Which he would be Sorry for laving _taken,. against , the positive directions at Acts of Parlia' meat, and that I,was certain he had too much regard for thecomtnerce ofG.rcat suticr our worst thieinies to tae it-rioni us. At a, ti m e when Great Britain was straining every nerve to suppress illcgai t ra d e at borne, which: only affeeted the , Revenue, hoped ye should not besinguhir in -allowing a much. more ruinous traffic to be - carried on tinder the King's flag.; end, in short, that I should deolite Obeying fits orders,. until .1 hod ail oppoi tunhy at seeing and talking with trim ; ,atitiesatne time making lion an apology.
